Surely it’s not April 1st already!

There was never VAT to pay from goods from the EU until 1st January this years. VAT is now (and has been for a while) collected by the shipper before delivery.
I don’t think there’s a way around it...

There should be if it’s new but then 20% UK VAT to add on.

It’s not tax dodging, it’s the way the VAT system operates with new goods!

Closer to 15% but you point is still valid. [emoji106]

Crazy isn’t it; two outwardly similar watches, one expected to halve in value as soon as you walk out of the door, the other (arguably technically inferior) known to triple in value.

Ah, that explains all the excitement, I hadn’t read that.
It certainly moves the goalposts and finally makes it a useful complication.

Thanks for pointing that out.

Once again, there’s nothing unique about the 1/10sec chronograph, it’s purely a function of the high beat movement.

It’s a great watch and a really great movement but let’s not get too carried...

The El Primero has always been a high beat (36,000vph) movement with a 1/10 sec chronograph capability.

I do like the white dial and if they get discounted by 40% then it would be very tempting.
